We encourage all visitors to read these terms before using our document processing services.
1. About PDFKivo
PDFKivo is an independent online platform focused on PDF conversion and document management.
Our website aims to simplify common document-related activities by providing convenient online utilities and helpful information.
Depending on the features available, these services may include converting documents, merging PDF files, extracting pages, rotating documents, converting images and other PDF management operations.
The specific functionality, supported formats and processing options depend on the tool selected.
Our goal is to make digital document tasks easier to understand and manage.

These terms apply to visitors using the website for personal, educational, professional or lawful business purposes.
If you use PDFKivo on behalf of an organisation, you are responsible for ensuring that your use complies with any applicable organisational policies and legal requirements.
If you disagree with these terms, you should stop using the website.
3. Permitted Use of Our PDF Tools
PDFKivo provides document utilities intended for legitimate file conversion and document management purposes.
You may use the available tools to process documents you own or are otherwise authorised to work with.
You agree not to:
- Use PDFKivo for illegal, fraudulent or deceptive activities.
- Process documents in violation of copyright or privacy laws.
- Attempt to access restricted areas or systems without authorisation.
- Upload, distribute or introduce malicious software.
- Interfere with the website’s security or normal operation.
- Attempt to exploit vulnerabilities or bypass security restrictions.
- Use automated methods that place unreasonable demands on the website.

4. User Responsibility for Documents
You are responsible for the documents you choose to process through PDFKivo.
Before selecting, converting, modifying or sharing a document, you must ensure that you have the necessary rights and permissions.
You retain any ownership rights you hold in your original documents.
PDFKivo does not claim ownership of documents simply because they are processed using its tools.
Users are responsible for reviewing converted files, protecting confidential information and maintaining backup copies of important documents.
You should not process documents belonging to another individual or organisation without appropriate authorisation.
5. Document Processing and Privacy
PDFKivo recognises the importance of privacy when working with personal, academic and business documents.
The method of file processing depends on the technology used by each available tool.
Some PDF operations may be performed locally within a user’s browser. Other operations may involve communication with external services or servers.
Where server-based processing is required, the handling of relevant files and information is subject to the applicable processing arrangements and privacy disclosures.
Users should not assume that every operation is completely offline or that documents are never transmitted unless the relevant tool expressly confirms this.
Please review our Privacy Policy for additional information about personal data, cookies, third-party services and document handling.
We recommend avoiding highly sensitive document processing unless you understand and are comfortable with the selected tool’s processing method.
6. PDF Conversion Accuracy and Limitations
PDFKivo aims to provide useful document processing functionality. However, conversion accuracy and output quality can vary.
PDF files may contain different types of content, including selectable text, scanned images, tables, graphics, specialised fonts and complex layouts.
During conversion, certain elements may change or may not be reproduced exactly.
These may include:
- Text spacing and alignment.
- Original fonts and formatting.
- Embedded images and graphics.
- Tables and multiple columns.
- Page dimensions and page breaks.
- Special characters and document structure.
We do not guarantee that converted files will perfectly match the appearance, formatting or structure of the original documents.
Users should inspect all converted output before relying on it for important purposes.
7. Scanned PDF Documents and OCR
Scanned PDF documents often contain images of printed pages rather than selectable digital text.
Extracting editable text from these documents generally requires Optical Character Recognition (OCR).
OCR availability depends on the capabilities of the selected PDFKivo tool.
Users should not assume that every tool supports scanned-document text recognition.
Where OCR functionality is unavailable, image-based PDFs may not be suitable for direct text extraction.
Users are responsible for reviewing extracted or recognised information to identify potential errors.
8. Document Acceptance and Accuracy
PDFKivo does not guarantee that a converted, edited or generated document will be accepted by an educational institution, employer, government organisation, financial institution or other third party.
Different organisations may have requirements concerning document formats, signatures, file sizes, image quality, authenticity or submission methods.
Visitors should confirm relevant requirements before submitting documents.
Using PDFKivo does not automatically certify, authenticate or legally validate any document.
